Bluffs Landing

Short session at Packery on Thursday but without Bird I have been struggling to find a family friendly spot for those 15 to 20 mph light wind freestyle days. So after missing yesterday, gave Bluffs Landing a shot and had a super fun time. Really clean wind, 6.0, 98L freestyle board with a 24cm pointer weed fin! But really, a weed fin is a must, I actually catapulted one time when I sailed into a pile of weeds. Another plus is you can bust the moves just feet from the launch:

 

Oh yeah! Cheers our Dad for taking more video!

Is America Closed?

No, but Bird Island is! Not good. Good old Port A sesh Sunday on 4.0 Riot and the custom. Probably should have gone to Packery though, the waves there were a bit more meaty but Port A really flatters especially when one hasn't sailed so much lately.

Daddykins took video from his iphone but it was too far away. Shame because Alexs board was working SOOO nice in the thigh high side off waves. If you relax your eyes and use your peripheral vision you might see a sick hit with tons of spray on the clip below. Then again, maybe not.
